Answer to Question 1

D
The law probably requires the researcher to report the abuse to authorities. It is also a good idea to bring this to the attention of the faculty advisor for the project, who may wish to consult with the college counselor.

Answer to Question 2

D
Children sometimes do not behave as the researcher expects them to. Honest recording of the data will reflect this.
